Nice ride !, great score for 5 bucks, too :) The fork reflectors date it as 71-72 vintage and , as Crash said, definately AMF built. Ride it a lot and enjoy ! :)

Crash - they make spray for that . Jaxon - Now I'm dreaming of the doublemint twins,not sure if that gets you kudos or not, lol. ( miss all my old buds on here, been strangely absent, and absentminded, the last few months ) .

Interesting info . and photo. Wondered if the difference was one was a 24" non super stock but had to go back and reread and you said both were SS3's. Will have to dig my 69 SS3 frame out and see how the curves look on that one. I do have a 24" girls Buzz Bike badged muscle bike that was...

Nice bike , and looks like it's coming along great - I love the Raleigh Choppers and have a few in my build que, maybe get some progress done this year, lol. That is NOT, however, a MkII.. it's a late Mark 1 crossover model. MK1 frame, looks like the longer MK1 seat to me. Has the MK2 bars...

Not entirely true. as I have a 1974 Sears 5 speed Spyder, Iverson built, and have seen one other ( twin to mine ). Not a lot of information around on Iverson stuff... KILLER FIND !, congrats. Not been around or doiung much with the bikes lately due to life and health issues, but weather...

Agree with others here - overpriced about double. Lot of mismatched pieces, strange fenders I've never seen before, 70+ bars, latemodel 'safety end' brake levers, wrong pedals,troxel or aftermarket sissy. Looks to be either a small tear in seat or something on ground behind it in the pic, hard...

Nice Spyder 500 gal. I had her near twin a few years back. Nice find. early to mid 70's ,same timeframe as the boys Spyder 500 ( hence the matching paint color fade ). Will have to find a pic of one I had.

interesting thread, not sure why there's not more posts. Here's mine... I consider myself primarily a muscle bike guy, but built this one up back Aug-Sept, just because. 71-2 Sears/ Puch built 5 speed.

Have to agree - A goodly amount of finishers :), and all great builds this year. I've not been able to follow along real close this year due to life getting crazy,but poking in at the end and seeing the great workmanship - gets me inspired.. might even have to try to participate (tried one...

what they said.... one of the top bikes this year, clean and just right.

Looks great ! .... bummer about the guard - but great and creative job with the facsimile.

two thumbs way up ! This one is definately my favorite build this year. (If I ever have time to enter a MBBO I might have to steal some of your ideas :) ...

Great bike - but I agree - we NEED more pics of the toy room :) :)

Had that same issue with the paint pens I used on my Spyder tires, look pink-ish. Although I used craft store paint pens, not the WalMart Elmers ones ppl reccomend. For the console - I've yet to do mine, but was thinking about sanding it smooth and covering with 'Bare Metal Foil' ( the model...

looking good, interesting color combo, will be wild done :)

it's an AMF built bike - google ' AMF Rainbow" . Nice find , neat little rider.

Noy my pic, one I have is like this but silver. NOS with some shelfwear, bought a couple from a guy for my not-yet-started Dilly clone project.

Glad you found a guard - sorry to take so long getting back at you . What troxel seat does that use ? the 'deep tuft' molded one ?

Too true, they always photograph nicer than they look in person ( sigh ). I keep finding really rough ones, those look good compared to half my collection :) . that Otasco will be killer cleaned up.

love the klunker ( do you have a build thread I missed ? ), I have one of those Puch framed Sears bikes in blue, might have to follow your lead :)
